Errormance Task
Algebraic Expressions:
Simplifying Sales Tax
Weston is shopping for a new backpack. The backpack he wants costs $25.95. The sales tax in
Weston's city is 6%. What are two different expressions that could be used to calculate the total
cost of the backpack?
• Write two expressions to represent the price of the backpack, b, plus 6% of the cost: the
first expression as a sum and the second as a product.
Complete the table showing equivalent expressions and the total cost of different
backpacks in places with a different sales tax.
